Sold out or empty seats ?

[mannycity]

Hope the powers that be can grasp this fantastic opportunity to fill our stadium every game if possible when stadium expansion is complete.

We've lost thousands of potential supporters over the last 20 years,however there not going to appear out of thin air,as a club there has to be real initiatives to get younger fans through the turnstiles,this is so important over the next 18 months.We must be fashionable to attract teenagers,who can come with their mates,as it was in the 70's 80's,

Some ideas please add your own!

1) junior season tickets same price in levels 1 and 3, not just solely in family stand.
2)group seatings in new areas, family's and friends
3) level 3 south stand singing section
4) include league cup games in season ticket cost for home games,or cap it at £5/£10 and £1 for juniors.
5)find the right costings of tickets £299 is fantastic but I feel that should be extended further in level 1 around the stadium and in all level 3 seats above a certain row,and phase the discounted price according to row numbers.
6) level 2 all the way round should have a premium price,as already mentioned,does this include present family stand.

Hope the club can gain many ideas,advertising etc,and make it a proper match day experience.

I have 3 seats in front row level 2 family stand,and would willingly vacate,to allow it to become a premium price seat,in exchange for level 3, front row north stand.

Must grasp this first opportunity to do it right!

Or how about...... price all our current second tier supporters out and fill it with corporate ?
(second tier offered third tier expansion)


just sayin'

I'm pretty sure the club have had a few ideas of their own before they pulled the trigger on the expansion.
To be fair since the takeover the club have always been more than fair with ticket prices.
For the players and the football we are watching the tickets prices overall are more than reasonable.
We do sometimes need to count our blessings.

That's what's happening. I was watching one of the CL games in Bristol & talking to a guy with a Seasoncard in Level 2 who was told the price was going up significantly and he could either pay it or move.

As a level 2 season card holder in the East Stand we've been told our season cards will go up to at least £1150 in 2015 and that's in block 209, so not on the half way line. Individually I could probably afford to pay that amount, but that would mean limited away trips and certainly put an end to European trips. Collectively, the people who sit in the same vicinity as me have all got accustomed to sitting together and would prefer to continue to do so, but that is highly unlikely unless we all accept a vastly inferior location. The justification for the price increase is access to the 'Club Level' with bars, superior food outlets and betting facilities. All of these 'benefits' are payable on top of the £1150 season card cost and given that almost all of us use our own transport to and from the stadium more than one pint at the match isn't an option anyway. There is already a number of executive seating both in the East Stand and the Colin Bell Stand and personally I cannot see that there will be the take up rate for a fully corporate level 2. By that time of course it will be too late as we will have already been forced to move seats.

Forgive me if i'm wrong but the club did notify Level 2 people that they were going to upgrade the seats with a price hike a few years ago.

And prices are about £150-250 more than they were then.

Think the price structure is ok. I think for the domestic cup games they could extend the kid for quid and think of other ways of really cheep tickets for young adults. They are the future. Would love to see 62000 against York on a wet midweek cup game. For real ;-)
